>>458394dumb foid
>>457971artistic endeavors are not comfortable career paths. you have to be likeable, charismatic, sociable, but most importantly lucky.its not impossible, because I've worked with many different companies and businesses of all sizes doing what i'd rather dub as "digital design" because graphic design is only 1 small aspect of what i really do. but i was also extremely lucky, and scored gigs in places most people don't know about because most people can't socialize through the noise. regardless, it is not very profitable by itself and in order to be profitable you will either have to be a slave to someone else or be a slave to the game of advertising and networking and pretty much never resting until you get some big break. which really shouldn't be a problem if you love the craft enough, but if even a small part of you thinks "this might not be for me" then it probably isn't, because that's not a thought that enters peoples minds that are retarded enough to make it their life (me)
>>457270if you're young get another career, graphic design is almost over.
>>457270>Pick up java and excel >get a cushy corpo job with bajillions meetings or backwater govt jobs where you do nothing>learn basic office politics skills>learn how to command people>go home and do graphic design for the sake of fun. Not money. Not fame. Just make something each week / month and post it on YouTube Shit like this should never be a job in the first place.
>>457978You think compsci won't be just like that? the tech industry is more or less the same. Nobody cares about your projects. What matters in the end is always people skills.
Interesting fact: Originally Mount Rushmore was supposed to have Lewis and Clark, Sacagawea, Red Cloud, Buffalo Bill Cody, and Crazy Horse

Former designer at Bloomberg Businessweek and The New York Times. Now, she does "design goodness" for Homer, Frank Ocean's design magazine.She apparently got ahead being a minority woman who makes designs that "challenges the power old, white men have over every day [non-white] people," and people laud her for it. Is she the real deal or just a DEI LARP?
>>45778995% of designers are hacks.Most of the skilled ones fall into other fields that pay more and allow them to create more interesting things, still using their design skills, but as one of many disciplines.
>>458161Really?! Show me one job ad that doesn't mention "Applicants without a portfolio will not be considered for this role." Look at her website right now, and tell me honestly—would you pay someone like her to be in charge of the art department at your company? What good is a talker who can't do the walking? This isn't a salesman position. It seems that all of you are so cucked that you can't even dare to say the truth out loud: she's a DEI employee!
>>457789Chinese people can never create anything. Just copy and paste.
>>458211>she's a DEI employee!this is your brain on 24/7 fox news and /pol/ brainrotthis isn't about me hiring her. it's about the fact that she can get hired as an art director in a shitload of big companies, by using her mediocre portfolio + amazing sales skillsCEOs, COOs, HR departments and so on, don't know shit about design. if you show them your good portfolio, but act like a weird antisocial incel, you bet your ass they'll go with her, who's gonna use buzzwords to describe how her designs speak to the zoomer consumer minds
>>457791>>457792Oh shit.
Explain yourselves, /gd/.
>>457619Brands too big to fall, so they just use simplest logo possible so it couldn't be misread.
>>458261>Who needs originalityOriginality in a corporate ID symbology only matters when you are trying to set yourself apart from larger established competitors. When you ARE the largest established player in your space (as all of the companies in the OPs image arguably are) there's little if any value to be gained from trying to be different for its own sake.The companies in that image that used the quirky, lighthearted "fun" look were all originally using it to identify as something other than the staid, serious, powerful corporate blocs they were up against...it was a way of thumbing their noses at the idea that you had to look, act and *be* one of them to take them on. It's a very astute approach at that start up phase when unproven investment vehicles rely more on "beat the system" ideology and gambling on a long shot to attract money.Once they gained major market share and clout in their space they took on the same "serious" trappings as the earlier corporate blocs they displaced because that's what is expected of them by investors who now have something concrete to lose if they continue on the more radical and risky path of being upsetters.Nobody wants or needs to upset a space they virtually own.
>>457619Typography is an art unto itself.
Everyone is on their phones now, so design is done to look more appealing and legible for mobile devices
>>457619Standarization is the ugly daughter of this stupid bitch Globalization.
>all women but me and this fag>tattoed goth oversocialized whores abound>if not that, then they're retarded tumblr users>if not that, just retards all around>IF there is another guy, it's some fag who wants to draw tatoos or tranimeI want to fucking kill myself. I have to do trade school classes to escape military conscription but after the first day, i'd rather go to the fucking army or commit suicide. I can't stand being around these worthless nobodies who think they're going to change the world. I don't plan on pursuing graphic design because it's a dead profession but I did have a passion for it and was autistic about typefaces and logos way back when. AI just had to roll around just as I was planning to pursue it as a profession. I had to go through with it because as I said military and because I don't want to work a wagecuck job if I can help it. You get gibs for being a student too so that's another plus. but I know i'm going to piss away 2 years of my life for nothing.
>>458513possible. but in order to grant you the desired status of superiority I wanna see your work. otherwise I deem 'cute words'
>>458513this guy gets it. be likeable and confident and you'll get clients. you don't even have to be good at graphic design just learn to network you fags good lord
>>458509because its actually fucking garbage and if you were good at design you would know that. plus 40 year old business owners are too stupid to get on a website and generate a logo. they pay me to do that for them
>>458278Just do graphic design as a hobby, this "profession" is fucking completely dead soon thanks to AI.
>>458552In that scenario, the guy wanting a logo would not care if it looked good or not. Stop coping.
how do you turn rotoscope into animation?
>>457763using animation software you fucking dumbassi hate faggots who ask the most retarded questions
>>457951ok ii just download AE what now do I pray to it & tell it make it for me ?
>>457763>>457852So have you done anything yet?

>>457763you can probably do this with AI now.
Feeling unproductive AF this past year. Everything I make feels like garbage, desu. Thinking of quitting in 4 months and taking a 3-month break for personal development, maybe make the switch to UI/UX after. Anyone been through a phase like this? How’d you get your groove back and start making stuff you’re proud of?
What are you? A hobbyist? A student? Quitting what?Makes no sense.
>>458501putting name in post like anyone gaf who u are
How do you market your services and get clients.
>>457886He doesn't have a portfolio. That's how good of a designer he is. SAAAAR, do not redeem the portfolio! World-star designer right there.
>>457894fart huffer
Let me guess—you need more?
you can learn marketing and then get yourself out in the public eye or whoever you want to be doing graphics for, have to learn business skills and such.
>>456979i surf social media for businesses that i think would benefit from my products and message them telling them im a designer for hire. i also have business cards and go to businesses in the area and ask to talk to the owner and do the social media thing in person
What do you think?

>>458295This just looks like the shit everyone made after pirating photoshop in the 90s
>>458323Yea, but what you said unironically good. The design panorama needs experimentation and exploration, not this bullshit of safe bets. Even the quirky branding of new premium products are following certain guidelines to make it a safe bet, even this ~Le Fluent Design®~ have a lot of study from souless brands behind. Design zeitgeist nowadays is uninspired and if it migrates back to randos downloading a pirate software and making soulful shit for their pet project, it will unironically lead to a good future, but I doubt it ever will, as nobody has free time anymore to waste.
>>458295Is there a similar design to this but without color? I kind of like the tactile look desu
>>458304I love spamming sad face with my co worker friends, it's funny for some reason
what is a WEBP file and why is it suddenly everywhere?
>>458372>>458373He also discusses software tools for working with webms, as well as specific scientific measures of effectiveness of image compression.
Google pays major hosts to batch convert all their shit to webp, and it gets preferential indexing in searches which affects downstream indexersUnironically nepotism in image format.
>>458372thanks that was informative.
>>458452ah I see that must be why it suddenly seems everywhere
It's like jpeg2000, but worse.
